We all try to be good at exercise, especially at the start of the New Year. It’s just that some of us are naturally better at it than others.
From the Early Riser to the Leggings Wearer, read on to find out what type of exerciser you are.
1. The Early Riser.
While others are hitting the snooze button, you’ve run 7km, done three sets of burpees, and are cooling down by swimming a causal 3km in the ocean. You secretly love to Instagram photos of your brightly coloured Nikes / post-workout green smoothie at 5:30am as a humblebrag.
2. The Unco Aerobics Dancer.
Despite thinking the Grapevine is an unconquerable move, you never give up trying. Zumba, Hip Hop, Ceroc, you’ve tried it all. Your lifelong dream is to be cast as Sara in the stage adaptation of Save the Last Dance.
3. The ‘I’m Too Sexy For This Gym’ Goer.
Your favourite workout is anything in front of the mirror. You regularly give other gym goers ‘two tickets to the gun show,’ and your protein of choice is canned tuna. Your entire wardrobe consists of tight shorts and loose singlets.
4. The Slow-Going Stationary Bike Rider.
Your effort level is set to 1, your feet are barely moving, and you don’t get off the bike until you’ve finished your chapter - even if your workout ended 11 minutes ago.
5. Spin Junkie.
You arrive 15 minutes early to class just so you can nab ‘your bike’. You’re on a first name basis with the instructor, own matching sweatbands, and stare daggers at any newbie who doesn’t know to wipe down their bike afterwards. Ew.
